Glucose variability patterns for precision nutrition in diabetes

GLUCOTYPES is redefining how we approach type 2 diabetes prevention. By combining advanced glucose monitoring, molecular biology, and machine learning, we aim to identify unique blood sugar patterns that will lay the foundation for personalized nutrition strategies.

About

Project Description

Type 2 diabetes affects millions and remains a growing public health challenge. Yet we still lack the tools to predict and prevent its onset effectively. The GLUCOTYPES project is tackling this by exploring how individual patterns of blood sugar responses – which we define as “glucotypes” – can provide early insights into disease development.

Led by a multidisciplinary team from across Europe, the project combines cutting-edge science with a shared commitment to improving health. Discover our objectives and meet the team driving this innovative research!
